BACKGROUND

1. Field of the Invention

The embodiments relate to a display panel and, more particularly, to a display panel that the pixel electrode near to the contact via has a specific pattern to improve the liquid-crystal efficiency.

2. Description of Related Art

In recent years, all the display devices are developed toward having small volume, thin thickness and light weight as the display techniques progresses. A liquid crystal display (LCD) device is a flat panel display device with a thin thickness, so a conventional cathode ray tube (CRT) display is gradually replaced by the LCD device. Especially, the LCD device can be applied to various fields. For example, the daily used devices such as cell phones, notebooks, video cameras, cameras, music players, navigation devices, and televisions are equipped with liquid crystal display (LCD) panels.

For the conventional LCD device, a liquid crystal layer is disposed on a pixel electrode, and voltage is applied onto the pixel electrode to control the tilt of liquid crystal molecules. Thus, it is possible to control light from a backlight module disposed below the LCD panel to pass or not pass through the liquid crystal layer, and the purpose of displaying can be achieved. In addition, the purpose of displaying different colors can be achieved through the pixel units.

Even though the techniques of the LCD device are getting matured, many manufacturers are desired to develop LCD panels having improved display quality thereof to meet the consumers' requirements. Hence, it is desirable to provide a display panel with improved display quality to satisfy the requirement for high display quality.

Herein, the pixel electrode of the present embodiment has specific shapes to improve the liquid-crystal efficiency as well as reduce the widths of the dark lines when the display panel is in a bright state. Hereinafter, the shape of the pixel electrode near to the contact via in the display panel of the present embodiment is illustrated in detail.

FIGS. 5 and 6 are respectively a schematic view of partial pixel electrode according to one embodiment. Herein, for clearly describing the features of the pixel electrode of the present embodiment, FIGS. 5 and 6 are the same views, and the difference therebetween is only the reference numbers. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the pixel electrode of the present embodiment comprises: a first finger portion 51 with a first inner edge 511 and a third outer edge 512 opposite to the first inner edge 511; a second finger portion 52 with a second inner edge 521 and a first outer edge 522 opposite to the second inner edge 521, wherein the second inner edge 521 is between the first inner edge 511 and the first outer edge 522; a contacting portion 53 electrically connecting to the switch unit 3123 (as shown in FIG. 4) through a contact via 3124 a, and a part of the contacting portion disposed in the contact via 3124 a to electrically connect to the drain electrodes 3123 d of the switch units 3123 (as shown in FIG. 4); a first bending portion 54 between the first finger portion 51 and the contacting portion 53, connecting the first finger portion 51 and the contacting portion 53, and having a third inner edge 541 and a fourth outer edge 542 opposite to the third inner edge 541; and a second bending portion 55 between the second finger portion 52 and the contacting portion 53, connecting the second finger portion 52 and the contacting portion 53, and having a fourth inner edge 551 and a second outer edge 552 opposite to the fourth inner edge 551, wherein the fourth inner edge 551 is between the third inner edge 541 and the second outer edge 552.

As shown in FIG. 5, in the pixel electrode of the display panel of the present embodiment, a first angle θ1 included between a first extension line of the first inner edge 511 and the third inner edge 541 is smaller than a second angle θ2 included between a second extension line of the first outer edge 522 and the second outer edge 552. In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, a first acute angle θa included between the third inner edge 541 and a reference line parallel to a first direction X is greater than a second acute angle θb included between the second outer edge 552 and the reference line, and the first direction X is substantially parallel to a gate-line-extending direction(as shown in FIG. 3). When the first angle θ1 is smaller than the second angle θ2 and/or the first acute angle θa is greater than the second acute angle θb, the second outer edge 552 can be more close to the third inner edge 541, so that the dark lines existing when the display panel in the bright state can be more close to the region near to the contacting portion 53, resulting in the improvement on the liquid-crystal efficiency. In the present embodiment, a difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 is in a range from 1 degree to 10 degree; and a difference between the first acute angle θa and the second acute angle θb is also in a range from 1 degree to 10 degree. Herein, the phrase “the first direction is substantially parallel to a gate-line-extending direction” refers to that an included angle between the first direction and the extension direction of the gate line is 0-5 degree, and most preferably is 0 degree. In addition, the term “first acute angle” and “second acute angle” refers to included angles ranging between 0 degree and 90 degree.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, in the pixel electrode of the display panel of the present embodiment, the second finger portion 52 has a first width W1 along the first direction X, the second bending portion 55 has a second width W2 along the first direction X, and the first width W1 is greater than the second width W2. Similarly, when the first width W1 is designed to be greater than the second width W2, the width of the second bending portion 55 near to the contacting portion 53 can be reduced, further reducing the width of the dark lines existing when the display panel is in a bright state.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 5, in the pixel electrode of the display panel of the present embodiment, a finger portion gap 57 is between the first inner edge 511 and the second inner edge 521, a bending portion gap 56 is between the third inner edge 541 and the fourth inner edge 551, and the bending portion gap 56 is between the finger portion gap 57 and the contacting portion 53 and connects the finger portion gap 57 and the contacting portion 53. Herein, the second bending portion 55 has a first length L1 along a second direction Y, the bending portion gap 56 has a second length L2 along the second direction Y, the second direction Y is substantially vertical to a gate-line-extending direction(as shown in FIG. 3), and the first length L1 is substantially equal to the second length L2. Herein, the phrase “the second direction is substantially vertical to a gate-line-extending direction” refers to that an included angle between the second direction and the extension direction of the gate line is 85-90 degree, and most preferably is 90 degree. In addition, the phrase “the first length is substantially equal to the second length” refers to that the deviation between the first length and the second length is 0-5%.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, in the pixel electrode of the display panel of the present embodiment, the finger portion gap 57 has a third width W3 along the first direction X, the bending portion gap 56 has a fourth width W4 along the first direction X, and the third width W3 is smaller than the fourth width W4. Similarly, when the third width W3 is designed to be smaller than the fourth width W4, the width of the second bending portion 55 near to the contacting portion 53 can be reduced to further reduce the width of the dark lines existing when the display panel is in a bright state.

As shown in FIG. 6, in the pixel electrode of the display panel of the present embodiment, there is a first distance D1 from the first outer edge 522 to the third outer edge 512 along the first direction X, the contacting portion 53 has a fifth width W5 along the first direction X, and the first distance D1 is smaller than the fifth width W5. In addition, there is a second distance D2 from the second outer edge 552 to the fourth outer edge 542 along the first direction X, and the second distance D2 is smaller than the fifth width W5. In order to achieve the purpose of high pixel density, the area of one single pixel region has to be decreased; however, the contact via 3124 a therein cannot be reduced at the same time. Hence, in order to prevent the problem that the dark line near to the contacting portion 53 and the second bending portion 55 may exist due to the various tilt directions of the liquid crystal molecules, the first distance D1 and the second distance D2 are designed to be respectively smaller than the fifth width W5. Therefore, when the display panel is in a bright state, the dark line can be more close to the region near to the contacting portion 53, further improving the liquid-crystal efficiency in this region.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 6, in the pixel electrode of the display panel of the present embodiment, the first distance D1 is also designed to the greater than the second distance D2. Hence, the width of the second bending portion 55 near to the contacting portion 53 can be decreased, to further reduce the dark line existing when the display panel is in a bright state.

The display panel shown in FIG. 2 is examined to confirm the display panel provided by the aforementioned embodiment has better liquid-crystal efficiency. In addition, the liquid-crystal efficiency, when there are various differences between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode shown in FIG. 5, is also measured. Herein, the term “the liquid-crystal efficiency” refers to the light intensity per unit area.

When a driving voltage ranging from 0V to 8V is applied to the display panel shown in FIG. 2, the liquid-crystal efficiency are measured in the case that the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode are the same (the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode is 0 degree) and the differences between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode are 2, 3, 4 and 5 degree. The obtained liquid-crystal efficiency in the region shown in FIG. 5 is illustrated in FIG. 7. When the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode is 0 degree, the obtained liquid-crystal efficiency in the region shown in FIG. 5 is 0.048643%. When the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode is 5 degree, the obtained liquid-crystal efficiency in the region shown in FIG. 5 is 0.051924%. Comparing the case that the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode is 0 degree, the gain of the liquid-crystal efficiency when the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode is 5 degree is 6.75%. This result indicates that the liquid-crystal efficiency in the region shown in FIG. 5 can be improved when the width of the second bending portion 55 is reduced to make the first angle θ1 smaller than the second angle θ2, that is, the second outer edge 552 is getting more close to the first bending portion 54.

Herein, the pattern of the dark line corresponding to the pixel electrode shown in FIG. 5 when the display panel is in a bright state is simulated. The result is shown in FIG. 8, in which the display panel shown in FIG. 2 is used for the simulation, wherein the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode are the same (the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode is 0 degree), and the first angle θ1 is smaller than the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode and the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 is 5 degree.

As shown in FIG. 8, comparing the case that the first angle θ1 is identical to the second angle θ2 of the pixel electrode, on the basis of the same reference line (indicated by the dot line) which is substantially parallel to the first direction X being a gate-line-extending direction (as shown in FIG. 3), the width of the dark line can be significantly reduced (indicated by the arrows) when the difference between the first angle θ1 and the second angle θ2 thereof is 5 degree. Thus, the stability of the liquid crystal molecules in this region can be improved.

In conclusion, in the aforementioned embodiment, the second outer edge of the second bending portion can be more close to the fourth inner edge thereof and the third inner edge of the first bending portion when the first angle is designed to be smaller than the second angle. Therefore, when the display panel is in a bright state, the width of the dark line corresponding to the pixel electrode can be reduced, and also the dark line can be getting more close to the region near to the contacting portion, resulting in the liquid-crystal efficiency improved.

In the aforementioned embodiment, the term “width”, “distance” and “length” respectively refers to “minimum width”, “minimum distance” and “minimum length” between two edges, and the “angle” refers to “maximum angle” included between two edges, extension lines thereof and/or reference lines.

In the aforementioned embodiment, the pixel electrode comprising two finger portions and bending portions are described. However, in other embodiment of the present invention, the pixel electrode may comprise three or more finger portions and bending portions, as long as the finger portions and bending portions most far from the TFT unit (which is the right finger portions and bending portions in the view of FIG. 3) has the aforementioned features.

In addition, in the aforementioned embodiment, a homogeneous aligned display panel is described. However, in other embodiment of the present invention, vertical aligned display panel may also have the aforementioned features of the present invention.

Furthermore, the display panel provided by the aforementioned embodiment may be used with any touch panel known in the art, to form a touch display device. Meanwhile, the display panel provided by the aforementioned embodiment and the touch display device can be applied to any electronic device for displaying images, such as a mobile phone, a notebook, a camera, a video camera, a music player, a navigation system, or a television.
